If You Are New - VISIT US
Join us for a reverent Ascension Day service in Lancaster, PA at Mount Calvary Lutheran Church on Thursday, May 14 at 7:00 PM. This historic feast celebrates Christ’s ascension and His reign at the right hand of the Father for His Church. If you are searching for an Ascension Day service near Lancaster, PA or a traditional Lutheran church, we invite you to worship with us. Our Divine Service is rooted in Scripture and the historic liturgy, where Christ serves His people through His Word and Sacraments. Stay after for “Sundaes on Thursday,” an ice cream social.
The first time you visit Mount Calvary is a very good day. If you are not new to church but you are new to the Missouri Synod, our church body, some things will be very familiar and some things might be very new to you. The way we worship is not new but is in fact very old. Our pastor wears clothing (called vestments) and the church is decked out in colors for that particular day in the cycle of readings and celebrations called the Christian Year. The readings, chosen in the year 800, take us through the account of Christ and His Church each year. Realize that when you join us, nothing we are doing us was invented yesterday.
If You Have Children - BRING THEM
We invite you to please bring your kids to God’s house. We know it is not easy to get them ready in the morning, but this is the absolute best place you could have brought them today. If they make some noise or squirm around, that is completely fine. Do not worry at all. Where else would God want His children except in His house? We are so glad you are here.
Membership and Communion
Holy Communion, which is celebrated in each service each Sunday and Wednesday at Mount Calvary Lutheran Church, is a sharing in the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. Because of its seriousness and reality, we administer Holy Communion only to member of Mount Calvary and to members of other Missouri Synod congregations who are in fellowship with our congregation and our pastor. We are account to one another, and our pastor is accountable to God for this church. When you join us for the first time and you are not a member, please refrain from Holy Communion. Our pastor will be in contact with you to address any questions you may have and about joining our fellowship in Christian faith and life. We are excited to meet you and we are already praying for you.
